Virals: Liverpool ‘still interested’ in West Ham forward Jarrod Bowen
Liverpool are reportedly ‘still interested’ in signing West Ham forward Jarrod Bowen in the future.
The Reds will continue to monitor the 24-year-old after it was revealed last month that the Anfield club were admirers of the ex-Hull City man.
As the transfer window enters its final few days, Liverpool have been relatively inactive in the window thus far.
According to a report from The Athletic, as cited by Football Transfers on Twitter, officials from Merseyside will keep an eye on Bowen’s progress.

The report cites strength in first-choice quartet Roberto Firmino, Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane and Diogo Jota, as well as backup in Takumi Minamino, as the reason behind not making a move this summer.
Meanwhile, cult-hero Divock Origi could still leave Anfield before Tuesday’s 11:00pm deadline.
Bowen has played every minute for West Ham across the opening two Premier League fixtures, backing up an eight-goal and five assists laden 2020/21 campaign.

It makes perfect sense to keep a close eye on the Englishman’s development in only his second full top-flight season.
Whilst this summer may prove to be a quiet one on the transfer front, with the fabled front three of Salah, Mane and Firmino all passing 30 over the next 12 months, a reshuffle looks to be imminent.
Albeit £27million valued Bowen may not be every Kopites idea of a marquee signing, the recent track record at Anfield would suggest that recruitment is in very capable hands.
